Confusion in Technology

I'm not sure if my title does my feelings justice or not. I'm not sure if it is confusion or uninterest in what I am being asked to do. I am not finding the paper that I need to write for class to be catching my interest and it is causing frustration currently. Also the articles that I am being asked to read are not appealing to my interest either. Maybe later in the day I will find the motivation and push through to get it done...
